Fight back-to-school boredom with these gaming essentials
Back-to-school boredom is a real danger. Keep yourself sane from the incoming deluge of assignments with a healthy array of gaming essentials. Adorama has everything you need to kit out your residence room: PCs, monitors, desks, chairs, and plenty more. Let's dive into some of the best gaming products you can pick up at Adorama.
Eyes up
The QHD LG 34GN850-B brings a whole lot to the table for a gaming monitor. NVIDIA G-SYNC ensures reduced tearing when playing your most hectic games. 1ms response times and 120 Hz support produces some of the most buttery-smooth gameplay you could hope for.
Class is in session
Fitting a full-blown gaming PC onto a crowded student desk can be tricky, but not impossible with the MSI 10SC-004US Small Form Factor Gaming Desktop. This particular desktop packs an Intel Core i7-10700F 2.9GHz processor, 16 GB of RAM, a 512 GB SSD with 1 TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER graphics, and is loaded up with Windows 10 Home. That should be more than enough to be able to join your roomates for a few rounds.
Big sound
You need a headset to keep your roomie from disowning you. The A40 TR delivers premium sound quality by way of Astro Audio V2, which ensures smooth sound and an extended frequency spectrum. The headband and ear cushions are especially designed to stay comfortable during those long gaming sessions. The swappable boom mic can help you cheer on your teammates as easily as it can help you catch up with mom back home.
Ergonomics first
Whether you're working through the wee hours on your paper due the next day, or you're having a Civilization VI marathon over the weekend, your PC setup needs to be comfortable. Take a gander at this motorized standing desk. The Mount-It! MI-7967 has an LED touch display for responsive motor control. It's able to extend from between 28.5 inches and 48 inches in height. The integrated cable management system ensures your playspace will stay tidy.
Portable power
If you're going to be going to lectures, you'll need a PC you can carry around with you to take notes. The MSI GP65 Leopard affords everything you need to hit the books during the day, and play at night. This model boasts a 144 Hz 15.6" full HD display, an Intel Core i7-10750H 2.6 GHz processor, 16 GB RAM, a 512 GB SSD, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX1660Ti graphics.
Pure precision
The Lenovo Legion M200 gaming mouse gives you everything you need for hours of gameplay without breaking the bank. In addition to the standard left, right, and middle buttons, there are two shortcut buttons by the left thumb for complete control. The 7-color RGB backlight adds a ton of fun to the look of your setup.
